On script-generated web sites, many documents share common HTML tree structure, allowing wrappers to effectively extract information of interest. Of course, the scripts and thus ...
Well tuned Large-Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition (LVCSR) has been shown to generally be more effective than vocabulary-independent techniques for ranked retrieval of spo...
We introduce a constructive, incremental learning system for regression problems that models data by means of spatially localized linear models. In contrast to other approaches, t...
Ranking plays a central role in many Web search and information retrieval applications. Ensemble ranking, sometimes called meta-search, aims to improve the retrieval performance b...
The training of support vector machines (SVM) involves a quadratic programming problem, which is often optimized by a complicated numerical solver. In this paper, we propose a muc...
